2026 Teddy Ball Host

Dennis Langlais is the Founder and CEO of San Diego Elites, a premier business and social networking community created for San Diego’s entrepreneurs, executives, business owners, and ambitious professionals. Through thoughtfully curated gatherings at many of the region’s leading restaurants, rooftop lounges, and distinctive venues, Dennis brings together people from more than 50 industries in an atmosphere designed to encourage authentic conversation, trusted relationships, and meaningful professional opportunities.

Under Dennis’s leadership, San Diego Elites offers a refreshing alternative to traditional networking. Its bi-weekly events combine professional introductions, industry keynote speakers, panel discussions, chef-curated cuisine, and elevated social experiences. The organization also equips its members with complimentary business-growth resources, including tools for website development, email marketing, content creation, search visibility, customer relationship management, and social media. At the heart of Dennis’s vision is a relationship-first philosophy: serve before selling, build trust before pursuing transactions, and create the right environment for opportunities to develop naturally.

Dennis is also the CEO of CodieDog Interactive, a digital strategy and technology company that helps entrepreneurs strengthen their visibility, authority, and business platforms through web development, artificial intelligence, SEO, content, and podcasting solutions. An experienced podcast host and interviewer, he has connected with hundreds of entrepreneurs, executives, and thought leaders from around the world.
